Wondering if any one runs a 10" rim w/ 28x9x15 tire on a montecarlo. I'M wanting to buy a 10" rim to get more tire to the ground instead of 8" weld rim i was using,I have 1/2x3" studs w/9" ford rearend. The wheel well is still stock,frame is not notch,any suggestion on backspacing w/10" rim. once i get tire and rim to fit i'm lowering car more to get IC better. I'm also installing afco new dbl. adj. shocks,in stock location. trying different springs in rear to get correct stance,will have pictures coming..

5.5 is what is needed with the stock width rear...

i have 15x10 with 295 drag radials. they are 5.0 backspace, and i have a stock length 9" rear. 5.5 will work too. i have a frame notch and fenders rolled a little bit. hope this helps
